ABSTRACT:
A pair of detecting stations A.sub.i and A.sub.-i on a plane H extends along an axis X. Each of the detecting stations is provided with an iris member and a divided light receiving section. Received light outputs at each of the light receiving elements are defined as R.sub.i, L.sub.i, R.sub.-i, and L.sub.-i, and the following equation is calculated to enable a coordinate (x.sub.0, z.sub.0) of the moving light source to be attained by a simple calculation: S.sub.i =(R.sub.i -L.sub.i)/(R.sub.i +L.sub.i)+(R.sub.-i -L.sub.-i)/(R.sub.-i +L.sub.-i); T.sub.i =(R.sub.i -L.sub.i)/(R.sub.i +L.sub.i)-(R.sub.-i -L.sub.-i)/(R.sub.-i +L.sub.-i).
